Today FinalWire released a new stable update to the desktop editions of its popular system information software. As a new feature, it now allows users to define global hotkeys with which they can enable or disable the AIDA64 hardware monitoring panels or switch between multiple hardware information pages on external displays, even when AIDA64 is running in the background. The developers have made AIDA64 v5.80 DPI aware so that all elements of its graphical user interface scale properly when the DPI zoom is active in Windows. AVX and FMA accelerated 64-bit benchmarks for AMD A-Series Bristol Ridge APUs Global hotkeys Proper DPI scaling to better support high-resolution LCD and OLED displays Corsair and Razer RGB LED mousepad support GPU details for AMD Radeon RX 400 Series GPU details for NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050, 1050 Ti and 1060

FinalWire released the smartphone edition of its leading system information utility, AIDA64 for iOS and Windows Phone. With the new apps, iPhone, iPad and iPod touch owners as well as users of Windows-based phones and tablets can get accurate information about the hardware that powers their devices. The GUI of the freely available apps uses the design language of the platform to ensure that users feel at home when navigating the graphical user interface. The freely downloadable iOS and Windows Phone apps are made available on the 20th anniversary of AIDA64. The development of the first predecessor of the utility, which has since become a quasi standard in system information and diagnostics, started in June 1995. Running on DOS, the program then called ASMDemo provided basic information about the PC's hardware and software environment and became publicly available in 1996.

The new version comes with an additional multi-threaded OpenCL GPGPU benchmark which can be used to measure the SHA-1 hashing performance of modern graphics processors and APUs. As AIDA64 has included a hash benchmark for CPUs for years, users can now directly compare how good their GPUs and CPUs are at crunching one of the most widely used cryptographic hash functions. The latest versions also implements support for Microsoft Windows 8.1 Update 1 and Windows Server 2012 R2 Update 1 as well as for the latest hardware.

The new multi-threaded memory stress testing engine now uses SSE2, AVX, AVX2 and FMA acceleration, and scales up to 128 logical processors (or up 640 logical processors in AIDA64 Engineer and AIDA64 Business). As a result, the test puts the memory subsystem under more extreme load than before. The February update makes AIDA64 one of the first system diagnostic tools to offer support for Mantle, introducing a new information page dedicated to AMD's new graphics API. The latest release also implements full support for Intel “Haswell Refresh”, “Bay Trail”, “Avoton” and “Rangeley” processors.
